A POEM TO MY KING


My heart is overflowing with good things.
I speak of the things which I have made touching my king. 
My tongue is a pen of a ready writer,
Even in hot or cold weather I will give him praise for he is my steady helper.
He took me out of miry clay and set my feet upon the solid rock;
He established my goings and put a new song in my mouth,
The song of joy and praise to my healer
I will sing a new song to my keeper.

My tongue is the pen of a ready writer
Day and night I will forever lift him higher;
From birth he has proven himself as my messiah,
Giving to me all his promises and my heart desires.
Your grace is sufficient for me oh lord,
It saves me from being disgraced.
Your mercy sets me free and has brought me into the light so I can see.
Now you have made me a celebrity, I am no more an object of pity.
You showed me compassion, 
Your favour took me out of labour
And your covenant you’ve not broken,
Nor alter the things that came out of your heavenly oven.

My tongue is the pen of a ready writer,
I will write a lovely poem to my King.
He has forgiving me all my sins, and delivered me from all my evil deeds.
I will sing of the mercies of the lord, I will make known his faithfulness.
He fights for me in all my battles without asking for money or cattle,
He shielded me under his wings and always gives me reasons to sing.
Many are the affliction of the righteous
But you deliver me from them all and gave me a right choice.
Thy throne o God is for ever, 
The scepter of thy kingdom is a right scepter.

My tongue is a pen of a ready writer.
So will I praise him in the life of my brothers and sisters,
I worship him even in the life of the spinsters.
In the life of my parent I glorified him 
"Cos without him how can they pay rent.
You took me out of darkness oh lord;
You took away my sadness and filled my heart with gladness.
Your protection and love has been from on-set,
So will I praise you from daylight to sun-set.

My tongue is a pen of a ready writer;
he has planted me to flourish by a glorious river.
Now my leaf shall not wither 
"Cos he has made me a glorious winner.
The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places
I have a good heritage from the rock of ages.
You teach me to profit and led me the way I will make more profit,
Thy word is a lamp to my feet, 
A light to my path and the rhythm to my beat.
I hid it in my heart oh Lord
So I might not sin against thee.

My tongue is the pen of a ready writer,
He made me outstanding in all my doings,
He stands me out in my goings and makes my blessing to be a river flowing.
Oh that men will praise the lord for his goodness and for his wonderful works
To the children of men, for he satisfieth the longing soul
And filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
The law of the lord is perfect, converting the soul:
The testimony of the Lord is pure, making wise the simple.
The statutes of the Lord are right rejoicing the heart,
The commandment of the Lord is pure enlightening the eyes,
The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever;
The judgement of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
*************************************************
I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations,
Therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever in all situation.
